too much chocolate

Yes, there is such a thing as too much chocolate. Too much chocolate, chips, wine and all the other really bad for you things. I have had to take my jeans off and resort to an elastic waist. Tragic and with no self discipline I am writing still from Warkworth north of Auckland.

After a fantastic movie experience at the Matakana Cinemas we slept in this morning as our darling children were being loved and cared for at Justy's parents for the evening. Oh, the sleep in, oh the silence. We went to see 'Untouchable Girls', the doco about the Topp Twins. It was just great and they are fantastic. I love them. Even my lovely Jonty shed a tear at the end. Brilliant.After a very slow start to the day we swooped up the children and headed up to Goat Island about 25 km up the coast for a day of fish spotting an relaxing. There were a stunning number of people there. An Auckland thing. There are a lot of people up here.
Anyway, Goat Island is a marine reserve so you can see giant fish swimming by and lots of other sea life. It is big on the tourist map so there were lots of people snorkeling and getting aboard the glass bottomed boat to check out the sea life. Jonty hired a wetsuit and put on his goggles and floated about. Nic got in the water and spent a lot of time rock hopping. Overall it was a really enjoyable relaxing day.

I hope you all had a lovely Easter Sunday.
